INTRODUCTION

During this photography adventure, my hubby and I stopped at Eildon where views of the Goulburn River were magnificent. The early morning light created beautiful river reflections of Wattle trees in bloom! Their bright yellow colouring against the blue of the river was just magical. I was pleased to be able to capture these images knowing that the wattle will only last a few months and by the time we would come back to this location – they would no longer be flowering. Such a beautiful day and near the end of this year’s winter. It’s the best time of the year to come and visit this region as it is looking it’s best…

PHOTOGRAPHY EQUIPMENT USED

During this photography adventure – I used a compact system camera, a Sony A7 Mark II – Full Frame with a Sony A FE24-240mm F3.5-6.3 OSS lens. Recently I had purchased a Right Angle L Plate Bracket for my camera so that I could turn it to do portraits or landscape photographs more easily which worked a treat. I also purchased a BH-40 Ballhead for my tripod and once more, it made taking my photographs not just easier but much more enjoyable. I also used my Apple iPhone 8 Plus mobile phone for quick spontaneous photographs and gain GPS location readings.

CONCLUSION

Being out-and-about experiencing the natural wonders of the world and the creatures it inhabits – really does rejuvenate the body and soul. Photography is just another way to improve one’s sense of wellbeing and at the same time – be creative!

Thank you for taking a look at my blog and for your comment. My passion for getting out-and-about in nature started when I was a very young child. Spent a lot of time with my younger brother and sister exploring our environment. Have a lot of good memories relating to enjoying mother nature and thus it’s not surprising that I have the same feelings now about said. Photography ends up being a most useful tool to be able to do the same – get out-and-about within nature’s playground… warm regards Karen
